    Plate ‘em up

    Signals. We found them. Now we just need water levels to drop. Even the claws have a bunch of meat.

    Plate ‘em up

    Okay, it's just a hotdog. But it's on a fresh homemade roll and it has sautéed wild onions we just picked. Topped off with bell peppers and some cheese under the dog.

    Protection in bear country

    Carried spray for seven years. This year switched to a 10mm. Wind is one concern. Deploying spray in a tent is another, especially if said bear is not inside but on top tearing through it. I'm much faster drawing the gun and shooting than I am with spray, unless I'm holding the spray while...

    Gun Owners Don't Vote

    Voting is one of the single most important things you can do for yourself, your family and future generations. I lived in massachusetts for 53 years. I'm a conservative. Voting was a waste of time. I still voted.

    Suppressor questions

    People way over think this. I buy them as an individual. The last one was a three day turnaround. Anybody can use it as long as I am with them. And I believe only the ATF can ask for any paperwork work from you. It's not like they are lying in the bushes everywhere waiting to check on you...

    15x Binos vs Spotting scope

    I find that a 10x42 on a tripod can pick off animals further than I'm willing to walk many times. The tripod is the secret sauce for great visibility. I watched a herd of elk last week feeding 2 plus miles away. It's been posted here before by many. A 10x42 will do what you need it to do 95%...

    I cured some country style ribs then smoked them. My version of Canadian bacon.

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    I had a vortex diamondback lying around so that's what is getting used for now. Goes up to 13x I believe, more than I need right now. For field use it's actually perfect. I will keep an eye out for a scope I can dial but won't break the bank. Then it will truly function like my hunting rifle.

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    I just got a tikka t1x over the weekend. And picked up my silencer for it this afternoon. Went straight to the fields for some gophers. Out to 75 yards shots were deadly. Just ordered a limbsaver recoil pad so it will feel exactly like my t3x. This 22 is a sweet little shooter.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    I've been using it for load development for 10mm for the past few days. Attached it to my tripod I use with my spotter and just started shooting. It's small size makes it so versatile.

    How the heck you do you pull apart the baffles? Talk about a tight fit. I can't budge them and I don't want to use anything sharp to wedge them apart.

    Suppressor

    I just put one on my 22 bolt action. With subsonic ammo it's James Bond quiet. Gopher hunting in stealth mode is insanely fun.

    Still better than golf 😎

    Northern lights tonight

    What the heck. Might as well add my pics. I think it's cool that people took the time to go out and enjoy this rare occurrence.
